Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $\mathcal{O}$ be an order in $K$. We construct class fields associated with form class groups which are isomorphic to certain $\mathcal{O}$-ideal class groups in terms of the theory of canonical…
In our previous paper we describe the Galois module structures of $p$th-power class groups $K^\times/{K^{\times p}}$, where $K/F$ is a cyclic extension of degree $p$ over a field $F$ containing a primitive $p$th root of unity. Our…
Let $k_\infty$ be the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension field of an algebraic number field $k$. Moreover, we take a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $K_\infty$ over $k_\infty$. In this paper, we study the behavior of the $p$-part of the class…
Let p be an odd prime. Let K = Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic field. Let v be any primitive root mod p. Let sigma be a Q-isomorphism of K. Let P(sigma) = sigma^{p-2}v^{-(p-2)}+ ... + sigma v^{-1} +1 \in Z[G] where 1 \leq v^n \leq p-1 is a…
Kummer's conjecture predicts the asymptotic growth of the relative class number of prime cyclotomic fields. We substantially improve the known bounds of Kummer's ratio under three scenarios: no Siegel zero, presence of Siegel zero and…
Let $H= \mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{n} + {\zeta_{n}}^{-1})$ and $\ell$ be an odd prime such that $q \equiv 1 \pmod \ell$ for some prime factor $q$ of $n$. We get a bound on the $\ell$-rank of the class group of $H$(under some conditions) in terms of…
The class numbers $h^{+}$ of the real cyclotomic fields are very hard to compute. Methods based on discriminant bounds become useless as the conductor of the field grows and methods employing Leopoldt's decomposition of the class number…
In previous work, the first author developed an algorithm for the computation of Hilbert modular forms. In this paper, we extend this to all totally real number fields of even degree and nontrivial class group. Using the algorithm over…
We show that the Siegel-Ramachandra invariants could be primitive generators of the ray class fields of imaginary quadratic fields. By using Shimura's reciprocity law we give a modern explanation of the solution of class number one problem…
In the theory of complex multiplication, it is important to construct class fields over CM fields. In this paper, we consider explicit $K3$ surfaces parametrized by Klein's icosahedral invariants. Via the periods and the Shioda-Inose…
Let $p$ be an odd rational prime and consider the cyclotomic number field $K = \mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{p})$ of conductor $p$. We construct a directed graph $Y$ on $p-1$ vertices for which the torsion part of the corresponding Bowen--Franks group…
In this essay, we see how prime cyclotomic fields (cyclotomic fields obtained by adjoining a primitive p-th root of unity to Q, where p is an odd prime) can lead to elegant proofs of number theoretical concepts. We namely develop the notion…
We use only addition and multiplication to construct the primitive roots of $p^{k+1}$ from the primitive roots of $p^{k}$, where $p$ is an odd prime and $k$ is at least 2.
Cyclic number fields of odd prime degree are constructed as ray class fields over the rational number field. They are collected in multiplets sharing a common conductor and discriminant. The algorithms are implemented in Magma and applied…
One can define class invariants for a quartic primitive CM field K as special values of certain Siegel (or Hilbert) modular functions at CM points corresponding to K. We provide explicit bounds on the primes appearing in the denominators of…
Let $\ell$ and $p$ be prime numbers and $K_{n,m}=\mathbb{Q}(p^{\frac{1}{\ell^n}},\zeta_{2\ell^{m}})$. We study the $\ell$-class group of $K_{n,m}$ in this paper. When $\ell=2$, we determine the structure of the $2$-class group of $K_{n,m}$…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant less than or equal to -7 and $K_{(N)}$ be its ray class field modulo $N$ for an integer $N$ greater than 1. We prove that singular values of certain Siegel functions generate $K_{(N)}$…
We show that we can develop from scratch and using only classical language a theory of relative quadratic extensions of a given number field $K$ which is as explicit and easy as for the well-known case that $K$ is the field of rational…
We investigate class field towers of number fields obtained as fixed fields of modular representations of the absolute Galois group of the rational numbers. First, for each $k\in\{12,16,18,20,22,26\}$, we give explicit rational primes $\l$…
In this article we explain how to construct cyclic octic unramfied extensions of the real quadratic number field $k = {\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{2p}\,)$, where $p \equiv 1 \bmod 8$ is a prime number such that $h_2(k) \equiv 0 \bmod 8$. The…
